The year of the horse means grit, determination, endurance, vitality, true spirit, you name it, he has it. There are two choices here, either you join in the race or you get left standing by the rails. There is no middle ground.

In truth it is a year for the leaders, for those who want to make a difference and make it happen. That is not to say the rest will be left out, after all there are thousands of spectators at a race meeting all enjoying the excitement and spirit of the event, all admiring the courage and commitment of the horses and their riders and all happy to celebrate in their successes.

2014 is an immense turning point in an energetic cycle that stretches over 180 years. Currently we are coming to the end of the 8 fate period of this cycle which has been with us for the last 20 years. At its height this fate period has had its impact and has instigated many changes in our evolution but its strength is waning and hence the indecision and ambiguity that has existed in the workplace over the last few years. All that is about to change and the horse knows how to do it.

We are fast approaching a new period of fate that commences in 2017 and this horse is the parent of that period. He knows what he wants, is 100% committed to his responsibilty and will be setting the stage for the next 25 years during 2014. This is about forward thinking, strategic planning and long term investment. This is not for the faint hearted, this is action man.
